Keegan Brown Fact File

Keegan Brown is widely regarded as one of the most promising young darts players on the planet. He is already a World Champion, having clinched that title on the Youth Tour in 2014 in front of over 10,000 fans at London's O2.

Brown's best run at a major tournament came at the 2014 Grand Slam of Darts, where he defeated double World Champion Adrian Lewis and five-time World Champion Raymond van Barneveld on a sensational run to the quarter-finals.

Prior to what pundits suggested was his 'coming of age' tournament, Brown had already claimed some major scalps on the Professional Tour, including victories against the likes of great Phil Taylor and James Wade.

Brown is known as 'The Needle' due to his composed, business-like persona on stage, combined with his reputation for giant-killing.

In May 2015, Brown won his first professional tournament at a Players Championship event.
